Recieved the email yesterday night and was denied admission. The message mentioned that I was a candidate fit for the EMBA program, is this something all rejected candidates recieve?

Thanks!

No. Mine did not say anything about executive MBA:

Thank you for applying to Columbia Business School. After careful review and consideration by the Admissions Committee, we are unable to offer you admission.

We did not make this decision easily. We appreciate the time and effort you spent preparing your application and your interest in Columbia Business School. While it is never pleasant to receive disappointing news, we hope that you will find other ways to achieve your professional goals.

Thank you again for your interest in Columbia Business School. We wish you much success in your future endeavors.

Sincerely,

MBA Admissions
Columbia Business School

Dinged without interview. Email received 9:02pm EST. Application submitted 1/7/15 at 11:37pm. I hope this isn't a bad sign for Wharton tomorrow!

Wow. 780/3.8/Brazil and ding w/o interview from 3 schools? I thought I was unlucky... That's rough. Sorry to hear and all the best for other schools. I think the key take away so far from Columbia has been - In order to improve your chances, apply early.

Yeah, engineering major too. But it's not all about the numbers apparently. :roll:

All these dings without interview are freaking me out. I applied 1/4, for those applying next year it seems like applying even a couple days before the deadline gives you a leg up as I almost certainly would have been dinged without an interview too otherwise.

My interview report was submitted 8 days ago now... seems like people have been getting responses in the 7-10 day window. Hope it's good news soon!

Every time I get a call from a NYC area code now I freak out. Which is often as I live and work in NYC... Yesterday I almost had a panic attack and it was Duane Reade calling me with a recording telling me my prescription was ready for pick up. Thanks.

My interview report was submitted 9 days ago, so I'm itching for that call as well. Same situation with the 212 numbers. Fingers crossed!

6 days ago for me. Its funny how things change once you've interviewed - now I dread seeing an email from Columbia.

All of you guys have been waiting longer than me! Maybe I should just accept that I won't be hearing back today. Seems like they have a backlog.

Congrats! Between CBS and Wharton, that might be the best hour that you'll have all week, all year!

Best of luck on Wharton!

Damn. Duane Reade REALLY wants me to pick up my prescription. Just called again. Too bad it's not for anti-anxiety meds.

On my US cell phone the number they were calling from came through as "Unknown"

Whether that's purposeful or just T-Mobile (i know, bad decision) being subpar, is beyond me.
